Chapter 36: Somewhat out of control



After Shen Ci was lured away by Lu Xiao with delicious food, he no longer cared about Shen Bie.

Shen Bie was annoyed as he watched his baby brother running around behind Lu Xiao, following him when he was reading documents in the study, following him during video conferences, and even following him when he was taking a walk.

Even though Shen Ci had liked to run after Lu Xiao since he was a child, wasn't this too clingy? Shen Bie gritted his teeth, and the vague anxiety in his heart became clearer.

It was not until the evening when Lu Xiao went to take a shower and rest that Shen Ci finally stopped following him and lay on the sofa, bored and browsing his phone.

Shen Ci was looking at the Weibo on the screen in confusion. He hadn't checked the trending searches for a day, and thinking about the horrific scene last night, he still didn't dare to click...

I hope he has already gotten off the trending search list. Shen Ci shed tears in his heart. He is probably the first idol who prays to get off the trending search list.

Shen Bie walked over with great momentum, finally catching the child's opportunity.

"Xiao Ci, I want to ask you something." Shen Bie sat next to his brother and whispered in a serious tone, "Tell me why you suddenly like Uncle Lu?"

Shen Ci held the phone with a bewildered look on his face: "I've always liked it."

These two idiots... Shen Bie flicked his forehead in hatred: "The liking I'm talking about is the same as the one you had for Shao Jinhuan before!"

Shen Ci was beaten for no apparent reason and was completely bewildered. He climbed up and touched Shen Bie's forehead, looking suspicious and silent.

Shen Bie: “…”

Veins bulged on his forehead, and he clenched his fists, wanting to hit the stupid Shen Ci. However, Shen Bie was reluctant to hurt him, so he could only sigh heavily in frustration: "Do you not understand or are you playing dumb..."

Looking at Shen Ci's silly look, it seems like he really doesn't understand.

Could it be that Shen Ci didn't throw himself at me, and that I, as his brother, was just being overly sensitive?

The bathroom door clicked, and Lu Xiao came out, wiping his head with a towel. His bathrobe was loose, revealing some of his smooth and muscular chest muscles.

"Ah, uncle is done washing!" Shen Ci's eyes lit up, and he ran to Lu Xiao who was wearing a bathrobe without even putting on his shoes: "Let me help you dry your hair."

Shen Bie's eyes twitched: "..." Take back what you just said!

Lu Xiao smiled gently and sat down on the sofa slowly. Shen Ci ran over to wipe Lu Xiao's hair. From time to time, he would playfully rub Lu Xiao's ears through a towel.

"Stop making trouble." Lu Xiao said calmly with his eyes closed, and gently patted the back of Shen Ci's hand.

Shen Ci secretly made a face behind him, humming a song as he patiently wiped his hair.

The relationship between the two seemed so affectionate, and Shen Bie, who was inexplicably excluded, was very unhappy.

It seems that he came here specially just to cause trouble?

As it happened, this person was Lu Xiao, so Shen Bieyi didn't dare to take Shen Ci away directly.

Shen Bie really couldn't help but lose his temper, gritting his teeth and said: "Shen Xiaoci, Shen Xiaoci, I usually treat you like an ancestor, why don't I see you serve me like this?"

Shen Ci froze for a moment, and smiled at Shen Bie flatteringly: "Well, how about having a hair scrubber ready next time and providing a bath and a horse-killing service?"

Shen Bie made it clear that he didn't believe him and snorted coldly: "Perfunctory."

After wiping his hair, Shen Ci took a shower, hugged his pillow and ran to Lu Xiao's room to sleep - as expected, Lu Xiao calmly carried him out and threw him back on his bed.

As soon as Shen Bie entered his brother's room, he saw him lying on the bed with a look of despair, sighing.

"Are you so persistent? Why do you have to sleep with Uncle Lu?" Shen Bie pinched Shen Ci's face, feeling very disappointed with him.

Shen Ci cried out in pain and slapped Shen Bie's hand away, pouting: "I'm used to it! I used to sleep so sweetly with my uncle in my arms."

"As a result, I went abroad with you to study for four years. Now that I'm back, my uncle doesn't want to sleep with me..."

Shen Ci was puzzled: "Could it be that my uncle thinks I'm too old now?"

Shen Bie: "...too big?"

Shen Ci nodded affirmatively, his face very serious: "That's definitely the case, otherwise why would my uncle be so unwilling? Hey, it turns out he likes smaller ones..."

Shen Bie was a little dazed for a moment, with a high-speed train rumbling past in his mind.

Too big, don't want, like the small one...what kind of lewd words are these?

Have Xiao Ci and Uncle Lu already gone this far? When exactly was it... Shen Bie once again experienced the feeling of being struck by five thunders.

The shock was so great that Shen Bie didn't sleep well the whole night. When he woke up in the morning, he had dark circles and red bloodshot eyes, and his haggard appearance shocked Shen Ci.

"Brother, did you play games all night last night?" Shen Ci pinched his face anxiously. Seeing that Shen Bie didn't even make a move to push him away, he was even more surprised: "You didn't kneel down all night? How could you be so upset!"

Shen Bie sighed softly and looked at Shen Ci with complicated eyes. Shen Ci looked like a black question mark on his face.

You can't achieve anything with three sticks... When did Shen Bie get the habit of "dying if he says one more word" from Shao Jinhuan?

***

Today is New Year's Eve, and in the afternoon, Shen's father and mother also came over. They hadn't seen Shen Bie's grandpa for a long time, and when they saw him, they were busy chatting about family matters and didn't pay any attention to their two sons.

Shen Bie was still distracted and locked himself in the room. Shen Ci knocked on the door several times but he didn't come out.

Stupid netizens Wei Shuo and Yang Luo were also busy at home preparing for New Year's Eve. With no one to play with him, Shen Ci was so bored that he was about to go crazy.

He lay on the sofa, staring at the small fish tank on the small table. The goldfish in it were swimming slowly and gloomily.

Shen Ci reached out and tapped the glass of the fish tank: "Well, let's just keep each other company..."

"So boring?" A shadow fell in front of him, and Lu Xiao's calm voice rang out.

Shen Ci blinked and looked up in surprise.

Lu Xiao stretched out his hand and pinched the child's earlobe, with a smile in his eyes: "Get up, I'll take you to go skating."

Shen Ci got up and asked cautiously, "What about...work?"

"Rejected." Lu Xiao's voice was flat and calm, leaving only his back to Shen Ci.

Shen Ci hurried to follow.

It has been a long time since I last went ice skating, Shen Ci was quite happy at first.

As a result, the moment he put on his roller skates and happily stepped into the ice rink, Shen Ci fell flat on his face and got an excellent starting point.

Lu Xiao didn't even have time to stop, he knelt down on one knee and helped the person sit up, feeling a little amused and helpless.

It was so embarrassing. Shen Ci's face turned red, and he stood up stubbornly and slid forward, but he fell down again.

This is strange. Have I ever fallen so many times before?

Shen Ci sat on the ice and wondered, "Is there something wrong with this ice?"

As he spoke, he looked up and saw Lu Xiao not far away, perfectly crossing an entire arc with ease.

Shen Ci: “…”

He had no choice but to hold on to the railing and slide carefully towards Lu Xiao. Lu Xiao noticed his movements, leaned against the railing, and said gently: "Take your time, don't rush."

After taking one difficult step after another, as he got closer and closer to Lu Xiao, Shen Ci finally smiled slowly: "Uncle, I—ah!"

Shen Ci's feet slipped again and he crashed into Lu Xiao's chest. Caught off guard, the two of them fell into a heap.

“Hmm—”

Shen Ci fell on Lu Xiao, and Lu Xiao fell hard on the ice, frowning and groaning.

Shen Ci hurriedly climbed up from Lu Xiao's body, not daring to reach out to touch him. He was sweating from nervousness: "Uncle, are you in pain? Do you want to call a doctor..."

Lu Xiao did not say anything. He lay motionless on the ice, as if in a daze, staring at Shen Ci with a deep and complicated look.

Shen Ci swallowed and didn't move.

Lu Xiao put his long arms around Shen Ci's shoulders and gently pushed him down. Shen Ci hesitated for a moment, but still lay obediently on Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. He lifted the person into his arms and held him tightly, burying his head in Shen Ci's neck and taking a deep sniff - just like he did countless times when he held the little breasts in his arms when he was a teenager.

The anxious mood immediately dissipated a lot, and the roaring in my ears gradually quieted down.

Lu Xiao admitted that he was a little out of control.

He didn't dare hug Xiao Ci at night, for fear that he might do something to scare Shen Ci, so he could only use this coincidence to vent his frustration.

"Don't move, give me a hug..."

Lu Xiao's voice was muffled through the cloth.

Lying on the ice, Shen Ci felt a little cold, but he still reached out and hugged Lu Xiao's waist, rubbing his ears inadvertently.

Time seemed to stand still, and the whole world was silent, as if only the two people hugging each other were left.

The only sounds they could hear were each other's gentle breathing and the faint sound of their rapid heartbeats.

Puff, puff, puff…

***

We stayed in my grandfather's manor until the third year of junior high school, and then we had to leave with various tasks to do.

Even Shen Ci, who had nothing to do, was taken away because he had to attend various New Year gatherings with the Shen family.

These gatherings are a good place to discuss cooperation. In previous years, the Shen family was reluctant to let the youngest child attend these occasions, but this year, Shen Ci... has become an idol who is madly harvesting mother fans.

The ladies of each family specifically requested that Shen Ci be brought along, and Shen's mother did not want to offend the ladies, so she had to ask her youngest son for his opinion.

Shen Ci agreed readily, but he never expected how nightmare-like he would be in the following week...

So much so that after the New Year holiday, when Brother Zhang came to pick him up to go to the announcement, Shen Ci still looked dazed.

"You..." Brother Zhang looked at Shen Ci, who looked as if he had been hollowed out by a Pansi Cave, and his eyes twitched. "You're not going to do anything illegal without telling us, are you?"

Shen Ci was exhausted, his nose felt sore and he almost burst into tears: "Brother Zhang, my mother's powder looks so scary..."

"I swear, next year... no, I will never go to a New Year's party again in my life! I will lose half my life if I go once."

“…”

Brother Zhang drove while listening to his incessant mumbling, and he almost hurt himself trying to hold back his laughter.

My son, why do you insist on letting others build their happiness on your pain?

Shen Ci vented a lot of resentment in the nanny car. When he got off the car, he was still a little depressed, but at least he was not that sad.

"Idol!" A familiar voice rang out behind him, but Shen Ci didn't move.

Not long after, Yang Xi really jumped out from behind, grabbed Shen Ci's shoulders and asked curiously: "Hey, why are you so depressed after the New Year?"

Thousands of words rolled into a sigh. Shen Ci wondered if Yang Xi, who was keen on pursuing rich women, replaced him, would Yang Xi think he was in heaven?

This time, the announcement they made was about a script reading session for the upcoming youth campus web drama.

Shen Ci was very puzzled. This production crew dared to invite a pure singer-songwriter to be the male lead, but they still had to hold a reading party in a strict manner?

He really doesn't understand the world of investors...

Many people had already come to the conference room in the office building. Shen Ci took a quick look and found a somewhat familiar face.

He was a calm and steady boy, quietly reading a play. Shen Ci thought he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was.

Noticing the gaze, the other party looked up and accidentally saw Shen Ci, and immediately showed a warm smile: "Shen Ci? Hello, do you remember who I am?"

His smile touched a string in Shen Ci's memory.

Shen Ci suddenly remembered, wasn't this Lin Wan who wanted to treat him to a drink at the last charity dinner?

Wei Shuo...also told himself to be careful of him.
